Camomile, Honey & Vanilla,

I’m not a huge fan of camomile tea, although I have been known to have a cup or two occasionally. This has a strong honey smell and taste, but I really have to concentrate to discern the vanilla. It’s a nice, soothing blend, if you like honey.

I generally dislike fancy-flavoured tea but this one caught my eye because I’m almost instantly sold on anything related to bees. Well, I’m mostly glad I took the plunge — this smells pleasantly of honey and vanilla, and because it doesn’t contain any caffeine, it’s nice for you to relax with, even late at night. I foresee this coming in very handy when I am struck with yet another bout of insomnia.

As per serving suggestions, I sweetened it with a teaspoon of Manuka honey and the result was something that tasted like … honey chrysanthemum tea … with a lingering vanilla aftertaste. I’m kinda neutral on this. I can drink it every now and then, but it probably wouldn’t be my beverage of choice if I could have proper tea instead.

This feels like such a redundant review.

This has been a full time residant of my tea cupboard for a few months now and is in my favourite teas of all time. Im not usually a fan of anything to floral or perfumed but I love camomile tea and drink it year round at anytime of day. This is by far my favourite, the flavors of vanilla and honey translate really well and help to bring out the sweet mellow flavors of the camomile. This tea is simple delicious and I will be repurchasing time and time again.

Not a big fan of this tea.

The Chamomile was subtle but overpowered by what smelled and tasted like artificial vanilla flavoring. I didn’t get any hints of honey. I added honey powder and milk in hopes to enhance the flavors, but it only made the tea slightly more drinkable by sweetening it, but it did not enhance the flavoring.

Help I am stuck with all this awful tea! Now I like Camomile, I love honey and Vanilla so I naturally thought that I was going to love this tea. WRONG too many flavors competing that my tea tastes like mothballs. Yuck!

Surprised at some of the ratings of this tea. To me, it smells strongly of chamomile and honey, and I barely get any vanilla. Same goes for the actual taste of the tea. I find it very soothing, and I often drink it at work when I’m stressed out or just before bed when I cannot justify having another cup of anything caffeinated.

While I don’t mind some artificial flavoring if it’s good (see David’s Tea flavors pumpkin chai and chocolate macaroon), I usually dislike artificial flavors in my tea. For some reason I can’t seem to taste artificial flavoring in this at all. Perhaps a bit in the honey note?

I was pleasantly surprised by this one in fact. It’s sweet, calming, and soothing. I loved it on a grey day at work when everyone was silet and I was writing a report. In a weird way, it’s a perfect tea for introspection.

I will definitively buy it someday.

I didn’t expect to like this tea and I was right…an unpleasant mixture of sharp chamomile, sickly-sweet honey, and artificial vanilla. It has an oddly thick mouth feel and an odd aftertaste that almost reminds me of mint (don’t know where that’s coming from, since mint isn’t listed as an ingredient or flavor). I finished my cup, but I won’t be drinking this one again!

Um. What? Why does this have such a weirdly thick mouthfeel? Is this their attempt at creaminess? Something’s not quite right here. I’m definitely getting chamomile and smooth vanilla, but the honey flavoring tastes really fake and seriously what is up with this texture? Apologies to anyone I sent this to in a swap – I had not tried it yet and it looked promising. This is drinkable but… weird to me.

EDIT: Ost described this as tasting like Vaseline and I think that’s exactly right. The texture is weirdly Vaseline-esque as well.

Nothing like a cozy camomile with which to settle in for the evening. Nice, with sweet vanilla and honey flavors. I added a bit of wildflower honey (I so love honey) that brought out a pleasant butterscotch flavor. Yummy!
